Hi! I'm Aqua, AM or Bob. Any derivation of my name is fine. In fact, I used to be AquaMarine27, but I got the 27 deleted so now it's all good xD

I live in England *waves union jack* it's slightly soggy and grey but it's home nonetheless.

I am a total dog person, I hate cats. My dog is a Lurcher called Stella, she is crazy but I get up at 6 to walk her, so it must be love, right?

I am obsessive over mint mentoes (softmints). Can't get enough of them - I ate six packets on a plane journey once.

I play the guitar, I am doing my grade(exam) 3 this year. I also sing - I'm doing grade 4 this year.

I write poetry - structured poetry with rhythm and rhyme. Not very good poetry, but I count it because otherwise I would be nowhere!

I am an ICT nerd, I actually like spreadsheets and databases. I'm not like a hardcore encryptor or anything, just an amature nerd :)

I was vegetarian for a year and three months. But then I got kinda bored and wanted some sausages.

I go to a grammar school. It's not hard really, just very strict on the uniform *UGH*

I love philosophy. Just started it this year in school, had about three lessons, and already I've read about five books on it!

My favourite item of clothing is my jeans. They are slightly ripped, skinny but baggy and I have to roll the bottoms up because I have short legs. It was love at first sight. (:

My favourite acessory is my aviator sunglasses, they are my third pair because I broke/lost the others, but for the moment they are totally awesome!

I suit hats, I think I have about 10. I love me some headgear.

I have three best friends at school. One of them is my total best friend. We are all cool - just ask our mums. (:

I have extremely wierd feet, my big toes are about as long as my second smallest toe. They are hobbits feet. Any day my parents expect them to grow hair and for me to run off down the hill shouting "Frodo! Frodo! Wait for me!"

Another thing you might like to know about me ^^^ I go into random talks about anything, so often that I even do it while I'm writing!

My favourite bands are Green Day, The Killers, Daft Punk, The Who, The Kinks, Blink 182, The Courteeners, Coldplay, Mook, The Kaiser Cheifs and The Pigeon Detectives. My favourite two are Green Day and The Killers.

I love the colour blue. Love it. Love it. < what else do I need to say!

I run five times a week, do the gym once/twice and try to swim once a week. I used to swim for 2 1/2 hours a week, but then I quit swimming club.

I am such a comedy fan. I watch so many re-runs and shows on youtube it is crazy. And, I love funny guys - if someone doesn't have a sense of humour I find it really hard to even talk to them!

I think Frankie Boyle is strangely attractive. I mean, he is Scottish, ginger and so, so funny. I don't think anyone can resist that type of charm xD

Oh, and, I love YWS xDDDD

Well, that's probably enough stuff for you. Hope to talk to many of you soon!
Aqua X

EDIT: I also have an outlawed poney. It's name is Kamas. It is the bestest poney in the whole world. You may have seen her cantering about the site.

Hi Aqua! I think I've seen you around a couple of the forums before, but I don't think we've ever talked.

You have a Lurcher? I love those dogs! Okay, I love all dogs pretty much - except boxers, the whole drool thing is kind of a turn off - but I have always loved sighthounds. Especially Salukis.

You're a runner? Me too! Except I usually only get to go jogging once or twice a week, because my friends hate going with me. I always have to force them to go because I hate running alone. I think you look kind of stupid running down the road by yourself.

Were the Killers the band that sang "Mr. Brightside"?

xD, I guessed from your avvie you would be a dog person! I love sighthounds, I'm attempting to persuade my parents to by a deerhound, I fell in love with one I saw out!
I love running on my own a lot, just put my Ipod up to full volume and awayyyyyy I go! But I go running with my mum sometimes, we are the same pace, and my friend a I are training for a 5k at some point!
Yeah, they did sing Mr. Brightside. That's possibly one of my all time favourite songs!

England? Dogs? Jeans? The Killers? Green Day? School with strict uniform? Wow. We have quite a lot in common. And Mr Brightside, I love that song muchly. So, a lot in common. Except for the whole Frankie Boyle thing. He's so irritating. Then again, I can barely watch Mock the Week without someone in my family yelling, "Not him again!" So I have prejudice. And my school uniform? Well. We have to wear kilts. Beat that for awfulness. :P

We have a maroon blazer. That we have to wear at all times. Even in summer.

*misses highfive*

I usually do that. xD
Well, our blazers are black, so I suppose yours is worse there. The kilts are horrible, though. They're knee-length if you're lucky and the blouses are see-through. Everyone hates them, and we have no summer uniform either. I envy the people who can wear what they want to school. I have to wait 'til sixth form.

Hey aqua!!

It's so nice to meet. I've seen you around a lot.

Now let's see.
I love dogs. My dog is a small terrier and I totally adore her. I also play the guitar and mot so good at it, but I love it. I get inspired sometimes and the guitarrist insime me comes out.
Now poetry, I consider myself a better poet than writer, you could check out some of my poems. They're getting better thanks to YWS!!!!!!!! I make poetry out of everything and I have aabout two whole two hundred paafes notebooks of poetry. No kidding, I just can't post them alll because some of them are like really...teeanager like.

Nerd!!! I'm a natural nard. I am a computer and writing freak and my classmates maku funa of that-in a good way. I love jeans, I have tons, skinny, flared, black, blue...just tons!!!

YOu like punk? My favortie is green day and Blink 182, although I mostly hear rock and metal. I used to swim too, I swam for seven years until i broke my arm. :( NOw I'm trying to go back to swimming and all. I also danced once or twice a week.

We have lots in common!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOu're cool, aqua

Pudin! We totally have stuff in common! Although, you're lucky you have an inside guitarist. I have none, I simply can't find the inside guitarist anywhere! And I've been playing for 7/8 years. I guess I'm better at singing.
And same about the poetry, I could whip up a dozen teenage angst poems, but I don't xD.
Punk! I love punk! A lot. I kinda like it 'cause it's so loud and has awesome guitar. That's why I like the Pigeon Detective. They're an average guy band except for the guitar which is amazing!
Look forward to seeing you around!
You're cool too! :)

Hello Auqa! I kinda want to call you Bob. One of my friends once called me Bob for fun, and it caught on, and for a while I was Bob. But that was years ago. :)

Philosophy is fun! And very satisfying too. Philosophy occupies my mind more that it probably should. Have you read Sophie's World? Come to think of it, all of Jostein Gaarder's are pretty philosophic.

Guitar! Awesome! I tried to learn how to play it once, but my fingers wouldn't cooperate. I mean, how do you cope with those blisters? Ouch! Singing has always been a dream of mine. It is a dream, that will forever stay a dream, because I am the most horrible singer I know. I can't keep on tune for the life of me. But I still sing, even outside the shower, and my poor family has to cope with it.

I have trouble writing structured poetry. But kudos for being able to do it!

Haha, vegetarianism briefly crossed my mind a couple of times. But I actually never tried it, too lazy of a person to be able to pull it off. And chicken is gooooooood. but i do love vegetables! Just out of curiosity, did you feel any difference in any way, during your no meat diet?

Green Day, Daft Punk, Coldplay and The Killers are all awesome!

You lucky people! I like uniforms. The idea is strangely charming to me. Well it depends how strict the policy is. I once attended a private school where they always checked if our black maryjanes were properly polished or not. Maryjanes! You know those typical, black, school girl maryjanes? Ick. I can't stand them. They just feel wrong! I don't go to a school where uniform is required anymore, but I do think uniforms are fun. But a person should never be able told what shoes to wear. ;)

Well, I guess I've rambled enough. I'll see you around! I look forward getting to know you, Aqua...Bob! Sorry, couldn't help it.

xD Kamas, I edited it just for you <3


Foxfire - I've just started to learn philosophy "officially" this year, so at the moment I'm looking at stuff like the cosmological argument which I find fascinating. But one of my favourite parts is actually learning about past philosophers thoughts - Especially Aristotle and Plato.

Aand Icicle (look, you can have Bob, I can have icicle :D)
I LOVE Sophie's World! I think I've read it about 3 times and it's fantastic!
Umm, I don't know if I felt different being vegetarian. I just felt extremely smug, really.

You love uniforms?! I guess that comes when you don't actually have one :D. Seriously, they check our shoes too. No decorations and we can't wear boots in the cold. Teachers are sadists :twisted:


Hope to see y'all around *snugs*

It is nice to know more about you. You live in England! Cool! I want to go to England so badly. One of these days. The killers are the best. I like Dust land fairytale the best.
